You can also use the function fetchAssets with media type

Video

let videosArray = PHAsset.fetchAssets(with: .video, options: nil)

Images

let imagesArray = PHAsset.fetchAssets(with: .image, options: nil)

You could play around with the sample code Apple provides for photo kit

Code would be something like

PHPhotoLibrary.requestAuthorization { (status) -> Void in
            let allVidOptions = PHFetchOptions()
            allVidOptions.predicate = NSPredicate(format: "mediaType = %d", PHAssetMediaType.Video.rawValue)
            allVidOptions.sortDescriptors = [NSSortDescriptor(key: "creationDate", ascending: true)]
            let allVids = PHAsset.fetchAssetsWithOptions(allVidOptions)
            for index in 0..<allVids.count {
                //fetch Asset here
                print(allVids[index])
            }

        }
